Description
An author of five best-selling novels in England, Celia Imrie is an Olivier Award winner for her West End stage work and a much-loved screen actress for the Bridget Jones and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel movie series, as well as Calendar Girls, Nanny McPhee; the FX television series Better Things and the current Netflix series, The Diplomat.
Ms. Imrie will always be “Mrs. P.” to us — Violet Pearman, Winston Churchill’s personal secretary during his Wilderness Years — a movie character she memorably inhabited in The Gathering Storm opposite Albert Finney as Churchill.
Her new novel is a London-during-the-Blitz-page-turner centered on a Piccadilly social club for U.S. troops called Rainbow Corner.
>We celebrated Celia Imrie and MEET ME AT RAINBOW CORNER here at Chartwell Booksellers on November 26, 2024.
